BRAC USA needs new leadership

Pros

Great team and staff who are committed to their work in supporting the largest NGO in the world.

Cons

HR process and systems are absent. Staff roles are often ambiguous and frequently changing. No career growth opportunities. Hiring practices create an imbalanced office culture. Significant staff turnover as a result. BRAC USA is challenged by poor leadership who lacks vision for overall strategy for organizational growth.

Pros

It's a company with an outstanding track record of success in development, so it's easy to be proud of and feel part of something special. BRAC is also working on all the main issues in development so there is plenty to get stuck into. I have also never met a communications team colleague that I haven't got on with.

Cons

At the Headquarters in Bangladesh it is a highly centralised decision making process, which can be frustrating. There is also a culture of middle and senior management not answering emails in a timely fashion because they're too busy. Working at the UK, US or BRAC Bangladesh office is a very different experience from working at BRAC International, who are far behind in terms of efficiency.
